A report from one of our volunteers on the success of the library.
The library: One of the biggest successes is the library. Children love coming around or staying after class to read a book or two.
The access pass: their parents’ permission.
The principal from the school told me that there is a difference of day and night between the kids
that stay in the program and the ones that don’t, she also told me that they have improved their reading speed and reading quality by tons. One of the programs that I was going to start on the Wednesday was the reading contest. I left the poster ready on the side of the closet that has the TV on the main central room. It is ready to have names posted on it and how many books were read in the period of two weeks. Children are reading between 2 and 5 books a day! They also learned silent reading. The kids loved lying down on the petates or sharing a chair and reading. They would come to me after reading and before leaving and they would tell me how much they loved the stories and what they were all about.
